Course Overview:
As portable electronics, such as mobile phones, laptops, tablets, are getting smaller, with more functions being added, the operation voltages for components are becoming much lower. In all circumstances of building or repairing electronics equipment, avoiding the dangers of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) and Electrostatic Overstress (EOS) is essential.
This course has been developed by The Electronics Group in line with IPC standards. However, this course is not accredited, delegates will be issued with a Certificate of Attendance.
